Wildman's TJ is getting a face lift

[reddvltj]

Well my leg is finally almost healed... So I'd decided to go to the local Cars & Coffee today.. Was a beautiful day out and there were about 30 vehicles there... My Jeep was still dirty from my trip to MT but Hey it's a Trail Rig so it's supposed to be dirty right?

Stopped at the Cottage Cafe for breakfast with Karrlie before the event & she had to get to work too. But this beautiful CJ3B was parked out front when I pulled up.

Absolutely loving the Panel and the Nomad!!!

Absolutely loving the Panel and the Nomad!!!

There were some awesome cars there... For being a small town event I was surprised & happy to see all the cars that were there. I'd missed the last two events due to conflicting schedule & when I'd gone to the June event it was cold and trying to rain so only about 5 people had shown up. And since this is the last scheduled event for year I really wanted to go. I'm paying for it now but still lad I went.

Most everyone who stopped to talk to me about the Jeep liked that it was a little dirty showing that I might actually use it.

 

[Wildman]

DangNab even in a JK this looks tight...

Now now children, don't make me come over there and do a lap dance!

Now you're talking about Ryan's type of shit...

When all you can bring to the table is that you've got an aluminum block you're grasping at straws... But then we'll be waiting until 2050 before we ever see his rig with his LS running anyhow.

I’m busy and it’s just a jeep.

I’m busy and it’s just a jeep.

My point exactly....

And it's never JUST a JEEP...

But keep trying.... And you're 150lb lighter front end will someday matter...

It’s always just a Jeep and I have one to wheel.

Again you're incorrect... But you're used to that...

 

[Wildman]

Well since I can't work on the Jeep I might as well spend money on it and buy parts... Now I don't have the deep pockets like Ryan or Jeff..

Ordered some items from Texas Jeep Products......

Grille supports

New tailgate hinges

Still waiting on my damn leg to heal...

That completely SUCKS with the leg!

Why the new hinges? They look cool.

 

[Wildman]

I'd hoped it would of healed by now... Got an appointment with wound care on the 27th... Wish it was sooner..

Why the new hinges? They look cool.

I'd bought some "cheap" Ebay ones that aren't working so I'd decided to upgrade to the better aluminum ones... @Jezza was the 1st to offer these so I bought his.

 

[Wildman]

Well I'm finally getting to be close to healed... Damn I HATE having to sit... And I've got a TON of things that need to get done around here..

Going to wound care on Monday still... Will see what they think. Hopefully it's only another week or two & then I'll be busy as hell.

Had to do a little work yesterday... I'd canceled my internet from the local wireless company and needed to setup my Starlink dish.
I've got around me so partially blocking the dish plus it's not perfectly aligned but these were my speeds in the rain and cloudy.

Starlink kicks ass. That's what I use and I have had no problems working remote on it the last few years
